Produktbeschreibung
This Book is a Personal Search in Two Voices, Both of Which are the author's. As a woman victim of sexual and emotional abuse by a psychiatrist, she uses the first part of each chapter to describe her own experiences. In the second part, she writes as a woman psychiatrist who is trying to discover the meaning of her own abuse and how to heal from it. Her journey includes having another, very different experience of therapy, listening to the stories of other survivors of abuse by health professionals, reading published accounts of such abuses, telling her story to professional and public audiences, being a member of a group dedicated to combatting sexual abuse by therapists, talking to colleagues who have treated victims of abuse by health professionals, culling ideas from the literature on trauma and abuse, and working with a few patients who are themselves survivors of abuse by health professionals. A powerful blend of the personal and the professional her book penetrates the 'conspiracy of silence' that still leaves victims far from getting the compassion, understanding, support, and financial and legal aid that they deserve.
